I’m running 50k in September for families facing baby loss

I’ve committed to running 50k in September in memory of my son Charlie and for every much-loved baby sadly not here today.

As many of my friends and family know, I was once in the unfortunate position to need the help of Sands when my son Charlie was still born at full term. A charity I wish nobody needed to access but sadly it’s still a necessity for many. They are a wonderful organisation,  all volunteers have lived experience and are therefore an invaluable source of comfort and support in a time of great distress. 

I’m not a natural born runner so if you happen to see me out trudging along please give me a toot of encouragement ! I’m a bit late to the party with this so I’m giving myself a bit of extra pressure to get my miles in !!!  I love a challenge 🫣 

Sands ensure that everyone affected by the loss of a baby gets the support they need and deserve when facing the toughest of times. They campaign for change, provide training for midwives and healthcare professionals, and support research so that fewer babies die and so that less families experience the tragedy of losing their baby. Anything you are able to donate means so much.

Much love
